Prediction of low birth weight from fetal ultrasound and clinical characteristics: a comparative study between a low- and middle-income and a high-income country.

Introduction: Adverse perinatal outcomes (APO) pose a significant global challenge, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This study aims to analyse two cohorts of high-risk pregnant women for APO to comprehend risk factors and improve prediction accuracy.
Methods: We considered an LMIC and a high-income country (HIC) population to derive XGBoost classifiers to predict low birth weight (LBW) from a comprehensive set of maternal and fetal characteristics including socio-demographic, past and current pregnancy information, fetal biometry and fetoplacental Doppler measurements.
Introduction: Extraction of Doppler-based measurements from feto-placental Doppler images is crucial in identifying vulnerable new-borns prenatally. However, this process is time-consuming, operator dependent, and prone to errors.
Methods: To address this, our study introduces an artificial intelligence (AI) enabled workflow for automating feto-placental Doppler measurements from four sites (i.
Article Synopsis
- This statement from the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI) outlines key principles for conducting clinical research in cardiovascular imaging.
- It serves as a useful guide for clinical researchers, cardiology fellows, and Ph.D. students in designing and implementing imaging protocols for clinical trials.
- While it can't substitute formal research training, it's highly recommended for anyone wanting to learn about or get involved in clinical trials related to cardiovascular imaging.
